A TBI is a brain injury that occurs from a physical impact to the head or body.
Vision and mission
Connectivity undertakes activities that benefit, support, inform and educate the community about TBI. They bring together people with lived experience of TBI, their families and caregivers, as well as researchers, clinicians, and healthcare providers to build the evidence base and improve outcomes for people following TBI of all severities.
